  • TUBERCULOSIS in GREECE an Experiment in the Relief and Rehabilitation of a Country by J
    TUBERCULOSIS IN GREECE An Experiment in the Relief and Rehabilitation of a Country By J. B. McDOUGALL, C.B.E., M.D., F.R.C.P. (Ed.), F.R.S.E.; Late Consultant in Tuberculosis, Greece, UNRRA INTRODUCTION In Greece, we follow the traditions of truly great men in all branches of science, and in none more than in the science of medicine. Charles Singer has rightly said - "Without Herophilus, we should have had no Harvey, and the rise of physiology might have been delayed for centuries. Had Galen's works not survived, Vesalius would have never reconstructed anatomy, and surgery too might have stayed behind with her laggard sister, Medicine. The Hippo- cratic collection was the necessary and acknowledged basis for the work of the greatest of modern clinical observers, Sydenham, and the teaching of Hippocrates and his school is still the substantial basis of instruction in the wards of a modern hospital." When we consider the paucity of the raw material with which the Father of Medicine had to work-the absence of the precise scientific method, a population no larger than that of a small town in England, the opposition of religious doctrines and dogma which concerned themselves largely with the healing art, and a natural tendency to speculate on theory rather than to face the practical problems involved-it is indeed remarkable that we have been left a heritage in clinical medicine which has never been excelled. Nearly 2,000 years elapsed before any really vital advances were made on the fundamentals as laid down by the Hippocratic School.

  • The Nature of Hellenistic Domestic Sculpture in Its Cultural and Spatial Contexts
    THE NATURE OF HELLENISTIC DOMESTIC SCULPTURE IN ITS CULTURAL AND SPATIAL CONTEXTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Craig I. Hardiman, B.Comm., B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Mark D. Fullerton, Advisor Dr. Timothy J. McNiven _______________________________ Advisor Dr. Stephen V. Tracy Graduate Program in the History of Art Copyright by Craig I. Hardiman 2005 ABSTRACT This dissertation marks the first synthetic and contextual analysis of domestic sculpture for the whole of the Hellenistic period (323 BCE – 31 BCE). Prior to this study, Hellenistic domestic sculpture had been examined from a broadly literary perspective or had been the focus of smaller regional or site-specific studies. Rather than taking any one approach, this dissertation examines both the literary testimonia and the material record in order to develop as full a picture as possible for the location, function and meaning(s) of these pieces. The study begins with a reconsideration of the literary evidence. The testimonia deal chiefly with the residences of the Hellenistic kings and their conspicuous displays of wealth in the most public rooms in the home, namely courtyards and dining rooms. Following this, the material evidence from the Greek mainland and Asia Minor is considered. The general evidence supports the literary testimonia’s location for these sculptures. In addition, several individual examples offer insights into the sophistication of domestic decorative programs among the Greeks, something usually associated with the Romans.

Based on the inscriptions and the geographical location of the site we propose the hypothesis that this is quite probably the spot where the oracle of “Apollo Seli- nountios” (mentioned by Strabo) would stand in antiquity. The wall ruins of the site are found on a very steep bedrock escarpment of an active fault zone, next to a hanging valley, a high waterfall and a cave.

  • Archaic Eretria
    ARCHAIC ERETRIA This book presents for the first time a history of Eretria during the Archaic Era, the city’s most notable period of political importance. Keith Walker examines all the major elements of the city’s success. One of the key factors explored is Eretria’s role as a pioneer coloniser in both the Levant and the West— its early Aegean ‘island empire’ anticipates that of Athens by more than a century, and Eretrian shipping and trade was similarly widespread. We are shown how the strength of the navy conferred thalassocratic status on the city between 506 and 490 BC, and that the importance of its rowers (Eretria means ‘the rowing city’) probably explains the appearance of its democratic constitution. Walker dates this to the last decade of the sixth century; given the presence of Athenian political exiles there, this may well have provided a model for the later reforms of Kleisthenes in Athens. Eretria’s major, indeed dominant, role in the events of central Greece in the last half of the sixth century, and in the events of the Ionian Revolt to 490, is clearly demonstrated, and the tyranny of Diagoras (c. 538–509), perhaps the golden age of the city, is fully examined. Full documentation of literary, epigraphic and archaeological sources (most of which have previously been inaccessible to an English-speaking audience) is provided, creating a fascinating history and a valuable resource for the Greek historian. Keith Walker is a Research Associate in the Department of Classics, History and Religion at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia.

  • The Phocian Betrayal at Thermopylae
    historia 68, 2019/4, 413–435 DOI 10.25162/historia-2019-0022 Jeffrey Rop The Phocian Betrayal at Thermopylae Abstract: This article makes three arguments regarding the Battle of Thermopylae. First, that the discovery of the Anopaea path was not dependent upon Ephialtes, but that the Persians were aware of it at their arrival and planned their attacks at Thermopylae, Artemisium, and against the Phocians accordingly. Second, that Herodotus’ claims that the failure of the Pho- cians was due to surprise, confusion, and incompetence are not convincing. And third, that the best explanation for the Phocian behavior is that they were from Delphi and betrayed their allies as part of a bid to restore local control over the sanctuary. Keywords: Thermopylae – Artemisium – Delphi – Phocis – Medism – Anopaea The courageous sacrifice of Leonidas and the Spartans is perhaps the central theme of Herodotus’ narrative and of many popular retellings of the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 BCE. Even as modern historians are appropriately more critical of this heroizing impulse, they have tended to focus their attention on issues that might explain why Leo- nidas and his men fought to the death. These include discussion of the broader strategic and tactical importance of Thermopylae, the inter-relationship and chronology of the Greek defense of the pass and the naval campaign at Artemisium, the actual number of Greeks who served under Leonidas and whether it was sufficient to hold the position, and so on. While this article inevitably touches upon some of these same topics, its main purpose is to reconsider the decisive yet often overlooked moment of the battle: the failure of the 1,000 Phocians on the Anopaea path.

  • Roman Relief Bowls from Corinth
    ROMAN RELIEFBOWLS FROM CORINTH The excavations at Corinth over a period of years have yielded a large number of fragments of the type of clav vessel herein described as Roman Relief Bowls.' Among those who have published this particular kind of bowl are Courby,2 Pagen- stecher,3 Kern,4 Orsi,5 Baur,6 and Philadelpheus.7 The quantity of fragments, the quality of the fabric and glaze, and particularly the discovery of a mould, combine with other factors to support the hypothesis that Corinth itself was an important centre of production of these bowls. NTowhereelse have specimens been found in such abundance as at Corinth.8 No adequate proof of manufacture elsewhere has as yet been established. It is conceivable then that Corinth's commercial energy may have been responsible both for the origin and for the wide distribution of this ware. The following notes on the examples from Corinth also throw interesting light on the period in which the ware was made. And finally, in further substantiation of the 1I am indebted to Charles H1. Morgan, former Director of the American School of Classical Studies, for permission to publish this material from Corinth. Many helpful criticisms and sug- gestions during the course of its preparation were offered by Oscar Broneer, Gladys Davidson, Arthur Parsons, and Lucy Talcott, and I am very grateful to each of them for their patience and advice. Wulf Schaefer drew the profiles in Fig. 2. A corpus of this ware is to be published by F. Eichler of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Therefore the content of this article is confined to material from Corinth with supple- mentary reference to similar material from museums or excavations in other places, namely, Athens, Eleusis, Patras, Nikopolis, Delphi, Tanagra, Melos, Antioch, Alexandria, Pergamon, Spalato, Syracuse, Rome, Klagenfurt, Paris, Brussels.

  • The Delphi Method: Techniques and Applications from the Foreword by Olaf Helmer
    The Delphi Method Techniques and Applications Edited by Harold A. Linstone Portland State University Murray Turoff New Jersey Institute of Technology With a Foreword by Olaf Helmer University of Southern California ©2002 Murray Turoff and Harold A. Linstone I. Introduction I. Introduction HAROLD A. LINSTONE and MURRAY TUROFF General Remarks It is common, in a book of this kind, to begin with a detailed and explicit definition of the subject- the Delphi technique. However, if we were to attempt this, the reader would no doubt encounter at least one contribution to this collection which would violate our definition. There is in addition a philosophical perspective that when something has attained a point at which it is explicitly definable, then progress has stopped; such is the view we hold with respect to Delphi. In 1969 the number of Delphi studies that had been done could be counted in three digits; today, in 1974, the figure may have already reached four digits. The technique and its application are in a period of evolution, both with respect to how it is applied and to what it is applied. It is the objective of this book to expose the richness of what may be viewed as an evolving field of human endeavor. The reader will encounter in these pages many different perspectives on the Delphi method and an exceedingly diverse range of applications. For a technique that can be considered to be in its infancy, it would be presumptuous of us to present Delphi in the cloak of a neatly wrapped package, sitting on the shelf and ready to use, Rather, we have adopted the approach, through our selection of contributions, of exhibiting a number of different objects having the Delphi label and inviting you to sculpt from these examples your own view and assessment of the technique.

  • Rock Falls in Delphi Archaeological Site, in Greece
    Rockfalls occurred in the archaeological site of Delphi, Greece B. Christaras Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geology, Lab. of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, e-mail: [email protected] K. Vouvalidis Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geology, Dept. of Physical & Environmental Geography, e-mail: [email protected] M. - F. Papakonstantinou Ministry of Culture, Chief Archaeologist of I’ Ephorate of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities, Delphi, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: In the present investigation, the safety of the northern slope of Delphi’s archaeological site in Greece was investigated against rockfalls. The area consists of limestone lying over flysch. Three possible rockfall rebound tracks, passing through the ancient stadium, and the theatre, were studied for different rock dimensions and tracks resulting that the more dangerous and difficult in retention rockfall track is that which crosses the stadium. The use of barriers was investigated accepting, finally, that a 2.5m-high metallic barrier could be installed along the northern steep slope for the protection of the archaeological site. KEY WORDS: ROCKFALLS, DELPHI, SLOP STABILITY, RESTRAINING BARRIERES 1. INTRODUCTION In the middle of September 2009, prolonged rainfall activated rockfalls from the upper sections of the archaeological site’s northern slope and fall downslope, out of the enclosure wall of the Sanctuary of Apollo, north of the Portico of Attalus. Rockfalls also occur in the stadium from 2003 onwards (Figure 1). The slope, consisting of limestone, is steep and heavily broken as a result of the existing tectonics. The rockfalls created dangerous conditions in the archaeological site regarding the safety of tourists, the staff of the ephorate and the protection of the monuments.
